@miaamormottley at her inspirational best!

[Owiso Owiso @Dr_OOwiso]

I want to know who this ‘journalist’ is; I just want to talk ✌🏿

1. You ask a really stupidly-framed question

2. @miaamormottley tries to save you from embarrassment, but you totally miss the gentle cue

3. You get put in your place, then you follow up with a racist stereotype
